Frequently Asked Questions
What is Azure Files Reserved Capacity?
Azure Files Reserved Capacity allows you to reserve a specific amount of storage capacity for Azure Files at a discounted rate. This ensures you have the capacity you need when you need it, with predictable performance and costs.
What is GZRS and why is it important?
GZRS (Geo-Zone Redundant Storage) provides the highest level of durability and availability by replicating data synchronously across three Azure availability zones in the primary region, and asynchronously to a secondary region. This protects your data against both local and regional disasters.
